Answer

x=-2 and y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step: Solvey=5x+7for y:

Step: Substitute5x+7 for y in 3x+y=−9:

3x+y=−9

3x+5x+7=−9

8x+7=−9(Simplify both sides of the equation)

8x+7+−7=−9+−7(Add -7 to both sides)

8x=−16

8x/8=−16/8

(Divide both sides by 8)

x=−2

Step: Substitute−2 for x in y=5x+7:

y=5x+7

y=(5)(−2)+7

y=−3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Which solid has one face, zero lateral faces, one base, one vertex, and zero edges?

Ratling [72]

The correct answer is cone.

There's only one face, and only one vertex that leads to a single base. There are no edges because the base perimeter is not considered to be an edge because it's a vertex.
